After Kalinga war Ashoka renounced voilence as per the teaching of Buddhism. Do you have a parallel example from Abrahmic kings? Having said that every civilization have had destructive infights. People fought for money, power,fame etc. But that doesn't mean they destroyed each other's knowledge system, temples, and monuments. That's is only true for Abrahmic philosophy which stresses on destroying the culture and knowledge systems of the conquered. |

No, I don't have any example of any king in Europe, Middle East or North Africa who fought a war as destructive as Kalinga war. And that's just one war.
>>Having said that every civilization have had destructive infights. People fought for money, power,fame etc.
Causes for the fall of any civilisation are always internal, eventually you just get take over by somebody better.

Would love read more upon 'Abrahmic Philosophy'.
